Pearl has always been known for designing pro-level drum kits at generous prices - but with their new Decade Maple series, they've given a whole new meaning to the phrase "more bang for your buck". Simply put, Pearl Decade Maple shell packs are the perfect balance of quality and affordability, making them ideal for newcomers and even veterans who want a back-up kit for playing gigs. From 3-piece shell packs to 7-piece monsters, the Decade Maple series is just another reason why Pearl continues to be a leading force in the manufacture of drums and drum sets.

One of the main factors that set Decade shell packs apart from the competition is their 6-ply/5.4mm all-maple shell designs. Each cross-laminated ply also integrates Pearl's Superior Shell Technology and are shaped in high-performance molds with 1000 PSI of hydraulic pressure, resulting in a drum that's equally strong, responsive and powerful. They're also a treat on the eyes - just take a look at the Decade Maple 3-Piece Shell Pack, a gorgeous collection that includes a bass drum, tom and floor tom. They also feature low-mass/low-contact hardware for tough-as-nails durability and exceptional performance. While you're at it, check out the Decade Maple 5-Piece Shell Pack. Perfect for stage and studio use, this pack includes 2 toms, a floor tom, kick drum and snare. It also happens to be a top seller - and once you sit behind these drums and let loose, you'll quickly understand why.

It's also worth pointing out that each Pearl Decade Maple shell pack in this section is available in your choice of colors (simply click on the "Choose Style" bar and take your pick). You'll also find the Decade Snare Drum sold individually here - a crisp and cutting drum that will impress any beat keeper. There's no question that Pearl has raised the bar considerably high with the Decade Maple series, so we'll leave the next move up to you.
